Acceleware’s ‘EM Powered Heat’ solutions can significantly reduce energy consumption while electrifying large industrial process heat applications.
EM Powered Heat solutions are built around its innovative, patented electromagnetic (EM) technology platform, and have the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption compared to traditional fossil based heat systems, offering real potential operation cost savings. EM Powered Heat is not simply a bolt-on emissions abatement technology.
It can economically eliminate Scope 1 emissions in two ways: 1) by reducing energy use, and 2) by electrifying the reduced energy demand. It can also eliminate Scope 2 emissions by operating on renewable power.
How is EM Powered Heat different?

Electrified Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ETS) is decarbonizing industry with new electric heating and storage technologies. Our flagship product, the Joule Hive™ thermal battery, turns intermittent renewable electricity into constant industrial-grade heat. It is a stack of electrically conductive firebricks in an insulated container, which may be installed on-site as a drop-in replacement to fossil fuels in even the hottest industries. The system charges by running electricity directly through the bricks to joule-heat them, circumventing the operating limits of today’s electric heaters. The same bricks store thermal energy up to 1800+oC with minimal thermal loss for hours or days until needed. Discharging the system simply involves running air or another gas through the brick channels to provide constant, high-temperature heat to any furnace, boiler, turbine, or kiln.
Elstor is a leading provider of zero-carbon Electrified Thermal Energy Storage (ETES) systems for industrial steam and heat production. We provide highly scalable solutions of 5-100MWh of high-temperature heat storage (up to 500C/932F) delivered on demand as steam or heat at an operating cost below fossil fuel power.
Elstor has three years of successful commercial deployments of its ETES system with five industrial customers who have switched from natural gas or light fuel oil to thermal storage at substantial savings. These projects have proven our system's reliability, steam quality, and cost reduction and decarbonization potential. ETES is installed easily and linked to existing equipment with zero disruption to operations. We also offer a “Steam/Heat As A Service” pay-as-you-go option.
Estor’s ETES system supports time shifting to power during off-peak hours, providing significant energy savings and automated demand response for even more savings. Charging and discharging can occur simultaneously. ETES has a 30+ year lifespan (unlimited for storage) and reduces CO2 emissions by 500 to 10,000 tons with each unit.
